I have a full stock 20" barrel .243 Winchester carbine and a full stock 20" barrel .270 Winchester carbine that are Whitworth. I don't have a .375 H&H Magnum nor a .458 Win Mag. My other European rifles are mostly Interarms Mark X and Zastava, with one custom .338-06 which is a rebarreled Remington 798, and a Remington Model Five .22LR.
 
Update - Zastava M70 rifles imported via Zastava Arms USA, a firm that claims current exclusive import rights to the USA for all Zastava products, now stamps the serial number on the M70 bolt action receivers where date of manufacture was previously stamped. The photos at Atlantic Firearms show this more clearly than any other photos I've found thus far. Here's an example.

The Zastava Arms USA importer's mark appears where the serial number previously appeared. Maybe the date of manufacture still is placed somewhere, like below the wood line, but no way to tell from the available photos.

FWIW, Atlantic Firearms informed me they have no plans to stock any other calibers or styles (such as full stock design) beyond what they currently stock in bolt action M70. And they have the most variety I've found!

Currently doing a load development on a .404 Jeffrey... it's always surprising to load .423 caliber bullets into a .404 caliber rifle. But we love it when we get 400 Gr North Fork SS bullets to 2300 FPS, those should hammer down on buffalo. Next up are the Cutting Edge solids and then Raptors... load 200 rounds of ammo for the customer and on to the next gun!
To much to political shit, to little Africa :-)
Spending a few years hunting out west then back to Africa!

Hello. If you haven't already sold this rifle then I will purchase. Please advise. Thank you.

I doubt you are interested in any trades but I was getting ready to list a Sauer 404 3 barrel set in the 10-12 price range if your interested. It has the 404J, 30-06 and 6.5 Creedmoor barrel. Only the 30-06 had been shot and it has 7 rounds through it as I was working on breaking the barrel in. It also has both the synthetic thumbhole stock and somewhere between grade 3-5 non thumbhole stock
